You can measure the depth this way

Measuring Tire Tread Depth with a Coin

or with a tool this way

Measuring Tire Tread Depth with a Tire Gauge

We can shave new tires for $25 per tire to the desired depth.

Naa lol Just follow the directions and that will give you a good idea of what you have. Might be worth a trip to AutoZone or something to pick up a depth gauge.

Might as well buy a new set of 4 since the depth is down to 2/32 on the inside?

Agreed. Sounds like starting with a fresh set would be the best idea.
